Hero Hunters: The Original Version Part 1

In an alternate future the United States became an empire, and its emperor was Henry Q. (X-Eye). X-Eye bought the United States government and he changed everything. His company was the sole provider of weapons and electronics in the country. Since the future is in chaos, with a huge recession/depression and multiple wars, X-Eye has emperor needed an escape goat. X-Eye’s escape goat is super powered beings. X-Eye has declared that any human or animal with superpowers will either be killed or forced to go to a special prison where of course they’ll be eventually killed. X-Eye soon formed a group called “Hero Hunters” and they capture super powered beings for X-Eye. Hero Hunters are very skilled soldiers with no superpowers or only man-made superpowers (like robotic suits or special weapons). 

Our story begins when a former friend to the super powered community Mr. Max Storm is summoned by X-Eye to join the Hero Hunters. The only problem is that Max Storm has retired from monster hunting and crime fighting years ago. But Max Storm (even though he didn’t like it) joined the Hero Hunters because he needs to pay the bills and feed his family. “I can’t believe I became a Hero Hunter, I was once friends with the people I now have kill,” said Max Storm. “It may look bad now, but them super powered folk are plotting to take over the world and kill us normal folk, so we normal folk kill them before they kill us,” said The Skull Slasher. “I joined up because I love to kill, and to get paid a shit load of money for it, it’s as good as gold,” said Night Watch. “Hard to believe most of us were once enemies, what kind of team we’ll be I’ll never know,” said Max Storm. Soon the Hero Hunters made it to their headquarters which is just a government base. Max Storm makes himself at home but he misses his family a lot. Max Storm is a lot older now and is not in the shape he was back in the day. But the main reason he was hired by the Hero Hunters was because of his connects with the super powered community. The next day the Hero Hunters were called to a new mission. “Gentlemen, you’re going to face a very tuff mutant,” said General J. Who is this mutant that the Hero Hunters must catch? The Hero Hunters mission was to try and capture the super villain Dirtclog. The Hero Hunters have a special weapon to combat such villains like Dirtclog. You see after years of research the U.S. Empire found a cure for superpowers. This basically means if a super powered person got shot with the cure, they would lose their superpowers for good, or it’ll be just temporally. It varies from person to person. 

The Hero Hunters soon began their search for Dirtclog who was reported to be hiding in the woods outside Hero City. Our heroes were walking in the woods when they heard rustling in the bushes. “Steady men,” said Skull. Then from out of the bushes popped out Bug Boy and he looked scared. “Fire,” cried Skull. “No please not the cure,” cried Bug Boy. Just then the Hero Hunters shot Bug Boy with the cure and then they knocked him out. “Rick Red, take this freak back to the truck,” said Skull. “Yes sir,” said Rick Red. Rick Red then picked up Bug Boy and dragged him back to the Hero Hunters truck. But soon Max noticed dirt under his feet and the dirt was moving. “Guys I found him,” cried Max Storm. Dirtclog then popped out of the ground. “You guy ain’t getting me without a fight,” roared Dirtclog. Max then shot Dirtclog in the eye with the cure. “Oh my fucking eye, why the eye,” cried Dirtclog in pain. Dirtclog then began to lose dirt after he was shot with the cure. Soon Dirtclog was human-looking again. “Great, my powers are gone,” cried Dirtclog. The Skull Slasher then bashed Dirtclog in the head and it knocked him out. “Come on let’s carry his ass back to the truck,” said Skull. Then Night Watch’s communicator was ringing. Night Watch answered it and it was Lester BarnSwallow. “Okay…we’ll be there real soon,” said Night Watch over the communicator. Night Watch hung up the communicator and reloaded his gun. “Lester found a mutant at the police station, he’ll be easy to catch because he’s high on weed,” said Night Watch. “Wait a minute…don’t tell me we found Claws,” said Max Storm. “Lobster druggie guy, Max since you were once friends with the guy, you bring him back to the base, we’ll take the other two,” said Skull. “Okay Skull, what’s going to happen Claws once I bring him back to the base,” asked Max. “He’ll be taking to the super powered person prison until we determine his fate,” said Skull. Now we go to the Action City police station where Lester BarnSwallow was waiting for Max to arrive. “Max, you made it, I was just paying my old friends here at the police station a visit, but then they told me they had a super powered individual in custody. I figured I give the Hero Hunters a call,” said Lester BarnSwallow. “I think this guy was once a friend of mine could I talk to him,” asked Max. “Sure, follow me,” said Lester BarnSwallow. Lester took Max to Claws temporary cell and Claws looked freaked. “Hello, Mr. Claws is it, here’s an old friend who wants to say hi,” said Lester BarnSwallow. “Damn it they were supposed to save me but they left me in that dumpster to die man…GAME OVER MAN…GAME FREAKING OVER….,” screamed Claws. “Calm down Claws it’s me Max Storm, now who was coming to get you,” asked Max. “The Gifted…they were going to take me to the superheroes secret hideout man but…,” cried Claws. Then Max shot the cure into Claws’ shoulder and soon Claws was turning back into a human. “Man is it me or am I losing my gills, oh my god….I’m cured…you son of a…,” cried Claws while hitting Max. Max then knocked Claws out and Max then sighed. “We better take him back to the base,” said Max Storm. “At least he can help us find those other super powered people, good find,” said Lester BarnSwallow. Soon Claws, Bug Boy, and Dirtclog each no longer had their superpowers and now prisoner inside a special super powered person prison. In these super powered people prison these poor mutants with superpowers are tortured and chained up. Usually most super powered people die in these prisons. The U.S. Empire is now leading a genocide for super powered individuals and like the Holocaust before it, these super powered people are completely innocent. Soon the Hero Hunters will go on their next mission and for some….they’ll be fighting old foes…and old friends! Whatever the mission maybe, Max Storm feels very guilty right now, but he doesn’t yet of all the evil that sadly he has done…or that is going to do! 

It’s now been a couple of weeks since the Hero Hunters last mission. The Hero Hunters have captured and cured Mr. Tallenstine, Ms. Condor, Deerman, Pelican King, and Color Man. Mr. Tallenstine lost a lot of weight after he was cured and now has huge folds of loose skin. Ms. Condor is back to being a beautiful supermodel again and she’s actually happy to be cured. Deerman’s ruby was put in a vault and he was still given the cure because the ruby triggered his mutation which gave him his superpowers. Pelican King looked like an ugly old man after he was cured. And as for Color Man…he just looks like a dork with pale skin and zits. Now we go to The Skull Slasher talking to X-Eye and General J. about something that is definitely going to shock everyone. “So Emperor X-Eye…am I going to be the head of the Hero Hunters or what,” asked Skull. “Mr. Skull Slasher, we looked at your blood tests and you sadly show signs of the superpowers gene in you,” said X-Eye. “What, I have superpowers, what do you mean I’m one of them,” cried Skull. “Look, we think that when your face was burned by the acid it triggered a mutation in you and caused the skin around your face and head to burn away without you dying, so the point being, if you were normal, you’d be dead,” said X-Eye. “I can’t be one of them, I can’t be,” cried the Skull Slasher in fear. “Guards, cure him and take him to the super powered people prison,” said X-Eye. Guards then crowed around the Skull Slasher and then Skull’s head was on fire naturally. “At least we know your superpower, your head can start on fire,” said X-Eye. The Skull Slasher was given the cure and soon his face healed, and he had his skin around his face back. “Damn it, I ain’t going to a death camp you hear me…I…,” cried The Skull Slasher as the guards were taking him away. “Now we need a replacement, but whom,” asked X-Eye. General J. walked into the room. “I found The Skull Slasher’s replacement, his sister Kim Shotwer, come in here Mrs. Shotwer,” said General J. Kim walked into the room and X-Eye looked intrigued. “Actually, I’m now Mrs. Kim Storm, I’m married to Max Storm and where is he,” asked Kim. “So you’re married to Max Storm eh…how did you two meet,” asked X-Eye. “I was once a werewolf and Max cured me, we both retired from monster hunting ages ago, I became a teacher and Max became an exterminator it was our way of paying the bills,” said Kim Shotwer. “Hold on, you were a teacher, your file says you were in an asylum since age 15,” asked General J. “I lied to the school that I worked at okay, we had to support…wait…who’s taking care of my baby son Mike,” cried Kim in a panicky voice. “Don’t worry your son is safe, now let me show you to your quarters,” said General J. General J. escorted Kim to her room. “If she wasn’t married I would want to nail her,” said X-Eye to himself. Now it seems Kim Shotwer is a new member of the Hero Hunters. But the fate of The Skull Slasher is a twist of irony because he’s a super powered person and he killed his own kind. But little do the Hero Hunters know is that the super powered community is about to start an epic rebellion against Emperor X-Eye and his empire. It’s time to pick sides for our heroes…we can only hope they’ll do the right thing!
